These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2018-03-05,
and should be interpreted accordingly.
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers to the newsgroup in a single followup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days.
All questions were written by members of Bill Psychs and are
used here by permission, but have been reformatted and may have
been retyped and/or edited by me. For further information see
my 2017-09-25 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI*)".
* Game 7, Round 4 Entertainment: EGOT Winners
These are people who have won an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar, *and*
a Tony Award. We generally won't give the details of all of
the awards. In each case, name the person we're talking about.
Notes: In the Oscars, we are counting a Best Picture as a personal
win for the *producer*. And in the Tonys, "Best Play" means
"best non-musical play".
1. This winner is a director, writer, and actor. His Oscar is
for Best Original Screenplay for "The Producers" and his
Tonys are for Best Original Score and Best Musical, also for
"The Producers".
2. This actress, comedienne, and talk-show host is the first
African-American EGOT winner. Her Oscar is for "Ghost", one
of her Emmys is for "The View", and her Tony is for "Thoroughly
Modern Millie".
3. This winner is primarily a producer. His Oscar is for Best
Picture for "No Country for Old Men"; his Grammy is for "The
Book of Mormon: Original Broadway Cast Recording"; and his Tony
awards include Best Play for "Doubt", Best Musical for "The
Book of Mormon", and Best Revival of a Play for "Hello, Dolly!"
4. This winner was a composer, conductor, and music arranger.
His Oscar was for "A Little Night Music"; Emmy for "Night of

Side Story", Emmy for "The Muppet Show", Grammy for "The Electric

6. He was the oldest EGOT winner, with an Oscar for "Arthur"
in 1981, Emmy for "Summer's Lease", Grammy for "Ages of Man",
and Tony for Best Director for "Big Fish, Little Fish" in 1961.
7. She was the first to complete the cycle posthumously. Her Oscar
win was for "Roman Holiday" and her Tony was for "Ondine".
8. This director took the longest time to complete an EGOT win,
at 51 years. His Oscar was for Best Director for "The Graduate"
and his Emmy was for Best Director for a Miniseries, Movie or
Special for "Angels in America".
For questions #9-10, the people are also Pulitzer Prize winners --
making the PEGOT!
9. This PEGOT winner was an American composer with over 900 songs
and 43 Broadway musicals. He was the first EGOT winner and
had successful partnerships with both Lorenz Hart and Oscar
Hammerstein.

Guiana. In 1906, he was officially exonerated by a military
